everything seems fine with the controls
the only thing I have noticed with this truck is you can't turn the key backwards for accessory

Being the part gets warm/hot means its magnetic usually... just reach under with it as see what the parameter is that it will reach...bound to see where it came off at...

That almost looks like it might be a magnetic lock pin

Can you shift out of park without pressing the brake?

It is the BTSI connector. It's what prevents you from shifting into gear without stepping on the brake.
